We arrived in Keene, NY on the afternoon of the 13th after leaving Burke in the morning and picking up athletes along the way. When we got here the whole group went out for a run, immediately followed by a swim in the Ausable river due to the intense heat. Yesterday we did a 3000 meter test early in the morning as we tried to avoid the heat (to minimal success) and in the afternoon we did some strength testing in Petes yard, including the Brutal Bench (a sit up that you start hanging upside down), dips, and pushups on the dip bars which adds a balance element to the pushup while also forcing you to go down lower than usual. While there is no "pass/fail" measure in the test, it was defitinely encouraging to see everyone this strong coming into the fall. Stay tuned!
